I'll add my comments after you weigh in.

I had a teacher who taught us Catholic teachings which was okay since most of the class was Catholic. She even taught us about the saints and some cathechism. I know our parents would have approved but now that I'm grown and out of the Catholic church I don't think it would go well if she was teaching my kids Catholic dogma. I would have objected and would insist that she taught from the Bible and then I would have been okay with it, but I don't think she knew Bible teachings.

I think he was trying to make a point and...he did.

Sadly and I mean very sadly most all of my Catholic relatives and there's plenty of them as well as my Catholic friends only know Catholic doctrine and many are slack jawed when they learn its not in the Bible. To my Pentecostal cousins credit at least they know the Bible. I don't always agree with how they interpret it but they know it to their credit.

I guess you just clued me in on what it means to be a DEVOUT CATHOLIC which doesn't always coincide with Christianity. Two different tracks. Nancy and Joe have used it to its fullest advantage. Having unlearned members is very beneficial.

I used to listen to this Catholic Priest on Christian radio some years ago and I was always astonished at how he blatantly challenged his membership to be studied up. He even went as far as to tell them on one podcast there will be quite a number of folks that come here every Sunday who are going straight to hell. I have been to many a mass although I'm not Catholic and had never heard anyone on his level. He spoke the truth which is not what mass is usually for. Most I have attended are pomp and circumstance with little substance.

As a kid growing up I would go to mass with my cousins when visiting them and I got to know members of the Priesthood as well. Sadly one who I thought a lot of was swept up as being a pedophile. I truly believe this would not be as much of a thing if these men were married. Its the spirit vs flesh on full display.

To the OP, we are past the point of no return in this country less Divine Intervention. The US would destroy Christ all over again if he showed up today only faster. His teachings are rejected to the point where people living in sin and in complete contrast to what is taught profess they are Christians. The only thing the poster did was openly expose the hypocrisy of the Regressives.
